Gratitude helps us learn to
live together
in peace and harmony.
Do you ever take the time to tell your animals how much you appreciate them?
There are many ways to let them know how you feel.
They do understand everything you say because they are all telepathic.
Remember . . . even something an animal does that might seem annoying has one or more gifts within it that we can appreciate.
